Orange County Flooring: Floor Structure

Beneath a raised finished floor there is normally some type of subfloor present which is supported by joints, beams, posts and in houses with multiple stories, bearing walls. Joints are typically solid or diagonal and act as a bridge providing extra support to a floor. In contrast a slab is just flat thick surface made from concrete and then poured onto the ground.
